2010: Turnbull was cast in the series Todd and the Book of Pure Evil as Curtis Weaver, the best friend of the titular character, who just wants to smoke weed and listen to heavy metal music but ends up fighting supernatural evil. Turnbull said of his character: "I liked that he was a sweet, lovable, cuddly dummy. He was a genuine and loyal dude". While the character he played had a missing lower-left-arm in the series, the actor does in fact have both limbs and used special prosthetics to achieve the effect.

Turnbull and the original cast were reunited to voice their roles in Todd and The Book of Pure Evil: The End of the End, an animated feature film that served as a conclusion to the television series after it went out on a cliffhanger at the end of season two. The film was released in 2017.

From 2015–2017 Turnbull played Doop on the sitcom that blended live-action with animation, The Stanley Dynamic. The show centered around a family who had twin sons, one of whom was an animated cartoon. Doop was the eccentric, workaholic caretaker of the local Community Centre who often gets wrapped up in the family's shennigans.
